Been on my job for thirty years, worked my way through 10 years production I’ve done basically every assembly Job in production, moved my way into Management starting as parts and shipping manager,then moved to assistant sales coordinator, to warranty Manager and Quality contrôl manager and was also administrating all Government GSA contracts, Which assume all three of these Job descriptions at once until it about caused me a stroke, went for a stress test which I was told my heart was good and I had no blockages my doctor told me if I didn’t make changes at my job that the stress could cause a stroke or heart attack. I requested from my GM that Quality Management be removed which he did, that was after assuming the role of all three for six years, ive continue the role of Warranty Management and GSA contracting since 2012 and recently our company was bought out by a much larger company and through the integration of the two companies merging together they are eliminating most of the Management jobs at the branch levels and main streaming the Management back through their corporate office, an HR personnel here at my office let it slip that my job was being eliminated which got back to me through an employee, talk about a kick in the gut, no 90 day required notice from Management, when I confronted upper management they told me it was true, I then ask for severance pay and ask to be released of my duties which I was denied, after thirty years of service and the sacrifices me and my family have made only seams right, I was told I was being pushed back to production to help with processes and job training which I explained to Management that after twenty years of management they putting me into a hostile environment, I’m 56 years old and been at the same place since I was 25. This is how big corporations work and I’m sure I don’t have a leg to stand on. I can either suck it up and loose what little pride I have left or just walk away. Any human resource people out thier with advice would be great. Sorry for the long post.
